The patrimony of the Library is closely related to the collections and
history of the Museo Nazionale del Bargello. At the conclusion of the
19th century, and the period following into the 20th century, the
Library's holdings were significantly enriched by the important
donations of Messrs. Ressman and Planiscig. The vigorous activity of the
Museum with regard to object loans to external exhibitions guarantees a
constant update to titles held by the Library in areas of
specialization: sculpture and the decorative arts.

Patrimony
The Library is estimated to be in possession of ca. 11,000 titles. In
addition to museum and exhibition catalogs the Library boasts an
especially fine collection of 19th century art auction catalogs. Also of
note is a collection of titles printed between 1550 and 1830.
